CONVERGENCE Subcommand
PRINT Subcommand
PLOT Subcommand
CONVERGENCE specifies a convergence criterion value. PRINCALS stops iterating if the
difference in total fit between the last two iterations is less than the CONVERGENCE value.
• If CONVERGENCE is not specified, the default value is 0.00001.
• The specification on CONVERGENCE is a convergence criterion value.
PRINT controls which statistics are included in your output. The default output includes
frequencies, eigenvalues, loadings, and summary measures of fit and loss.
PRINT is followed by one or more of the following keywords:
FREQ Marginal frequencies for the variables in the analysis.
HISTORY History of the iterations.
EIGEN Eigenvalues.
CORRELATION Correlation matrix for the transformed variables in the analysis. No
correlation matrix is produced if there are any missing data.
OBJECT Object scores.
QUANT Category quantifications and category coordinates for SNOM, ORDI,
and NUME variables and category quantifications in each dimension
for MNOM variables.
LOADINGS Component loadings for SNOM, ORDI, and NUME variables.
DEFAULT FREQ, EIGEN, LOADINGS, and QUANT.
ALL All of the available statistics.
NONE Summary measures of fit.
PLOT can be used to produce plots of category quantifications, object scores, and component
loadings.
• If PLOT is not specified, plots of the object scores and the quantifications are produced.
• No plots are produced for a one-dimensional solution.
PLOT is followed by one or more of the following keywords:
LOADINGS Plots of the component loadings of SNOM, ORDI, and NUME variables.
OBJECT Plots of the object scores.
QUANT Plots of the category quantifications for MNOM variables and plots of the
single-category coordinates for SNOM, ORDI, and NUME variables.
